Systems engineering addresses the way the design and development of complex products like aircraft, automobiles, rockets or ships are technically coordinated. Better systems engineering will improve these products and allow them to be developed faster and for less money. To improve systems engineering, it needs to be built onto a scientific foundation. This project will conduct a workshop bringing together the leading minds in systems engineering theory from academics and from government and plan future research that can put a scientific foundation under systems engineering.This workshop will bring together approximately 35 researchers from universities around the US and beyond to assess where the next steps will lie in developing theoretical underpinnings for the practice of systems engineering. The workshop will address four areas: System Architecting and Conceptual Design; Guidance; Models; and Measurements. Current practice in systems engineering will be discussed, existing theoretical foundations will be noted, and the group of participants will assess needs and opportunities for deeper understanding and more rigorous practice. Results of the workshop will be disseminated through a web site, conference presentation, and archival publication.

系统工程解决了飞机、汽车、火箭或船舶等复杂产品的设计和开发在技术上协调一致的问题。更好的系统工程将改进这些产品，使它们能够以更快的速度和更少的成本开发出来。为了改进系统工程，它需要建立在科学的基础上。这个项目将举办一个研讨会，汇聚学术界和政府在系统工程理论方面的领军人物，并计划未来的研究，为系统工程奠定科学基础。这个研讨会将汇集来自美国和其他地区大学的大约35名研究人员，以评估下一步将在哪里为系统工程实践发展理论基础。研讨会将讨论四个领域：系统架构和概念设计；指导；模型；和测量。将讨论当前系统工程的实践，注意现有的理论基础，参与者小组将评估加深理解和更严格实践的需要和机会。讲习班的成果将通过网站、会议介绍和档案出版物进行传播。
